Description
Are you an experienced carer passionate about supporting people living with dementia? In Thame and the surrounding Oxfordshire area, there’s a growing need for patient, reliable carers who understand the importance of routine and familiar surroundings. Working through PrimeCarers, you’ll connect directly with families looking for dementia care support at home — helping clients maintain their independence and dignity.
Dementia care requires patience, empathy, and consistency. You’ll support clients by following personalised routines, encouraging meaningful activities, and providing companionship in a way that feels safe and reassuring. This role suits carers who value building strong relationships and want to make a genuine difference in someone’s daily life.
With PrimeCarers, you’re self-employed, which means you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours, and service area — whether that’s Thame itself or nearby towns like Stonebridge, Princes Risborough, Watlington, Aylesbury, Cowley and Wendover. Typical rates for dementia support carers range from £19.20–£22.50 per hour. You can pick the hours that fit your lifestyle, whether part-time, full-time, or live-in care with rates from £145–£160 per day per day.
We handle the contracts, invoicing, and payments, so you can focus on what matters most: caring. While you work, you’re covered by insurance included in the service, giving you peace of mind on every visit.
To join, you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this if you don’t have one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. Applying takes just minutes online, and profiles typically go live within days after verification.
